Hi Mahammed,

Looks like you're receiving far too much optical power on Te2/8/1.  At +2.6dBm, 
you will be overloading the receiver on any type of optic. That is what the 
"++" is warning you about. Typically ZR class optics transmit at between +0 and 
+3 or +5 dBm, and can receive from -7 or -8 dBm down to -23dBm.

I suggest you need a 10dB attenuator on the RX side of Te2/8/1.  If you don't 
have one of those, you could try leaving an air-gap of a few mm - ie. only half 
plug it in, or bending the patch lead until the link comes up...  The proper 
way is with the attenuator - the other methods are just things to try - to 
confirm that your problem is too much receive power on Te2/8/1.  You probably 
want the same attenuator in the other direction, though its harder to be 
definitive when the Rx power is listed as N/A !

I have seen some links work for a while with too much receive power, then stop 
working - which is the symptom that you describe.

Good Luck with it!

Regards

Tim.

Subject: [c-nsp] SFP/Transceiver Issue

Hi all

I am trying to connect a link between my 6509 box and N5K box

The link was functioning well , but now it is never up

I have tried to change the SFP with no luck

Please check below
